God's Economy vs. The Economy of Chaos - Part 1, Annette Capps

Although the world’s system is based on money, God’s economy is based on His provision. He has already given unto us “all things that pertain to life and godliness.” (2 Peter 1:3) We must shift our consciousness, however, from money to provision. While humans have focused on, sought, and become obsessed with money, the real provision of God is not necessarily attached to money.

-When Jesus asked Phillip where they could buy bread to provide food for five thousand (John 6), how much money did it cost? $0

-How much money did the leper Naaman (2 Kings 5) spend to be healed? $0

-What was the travel expense for Phillip to go from the desert (Acts 8:40) to Azotus? $0

So let’s change our thought patterns from the world’s economy of chaos to the unlimited provisions of the Creator. I believe the time has come that we must rely upon and look to God as our Source — Not the government, not retirement accounts, not jobs. These things can be helpful and a blessing, but GOD IS OUR TRUE SOURCE, and He requires no money to feed 5000 people, heal deadly diseases, or get you where you need to be.

Can we turn our eyes away from the chaos and limitations of the world’s monetary system and look at Jesus, our Good Shepherd who provides for His sheep. “The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not lack.” (Psalm 23) Can we look upon the God of Abraham, Jehovah-Jireh, the God Who Provides? Say out loud, “Yes! I will put my trust in God my Provider! He is my Source of provision for all I need!”
